Arg i'm getting driven crazy... I had my computer stop working was failing to boot so anyways i had a spare power supply hooked it up and the computer booted, but when i tried to hook everything up and shut it down normally the computer wouldn't boot up again...
I tried testing the new PSU and it appeared to have died (paperclip shorting the green and black wires on the motherboard connector) so i figured this new backup power supply I had was just barely had the wattage my comp needed so it must have been killed by me booting the computer and the previous one had been providing enough voltage, but just died... so anyways i just got another power supply which should be able to power the computer easily and it won't boot... I'm thinking now its actually the motherboard that is half dead and just failing to boot alot of the time. In any case i plan to switch out the MB tomorrow which is a pain in the arse, but i dunno anything else i can do.
